My most difficult experience was when my father passed away. What I learnt is that even in the absence of one parent, life goes on, such as going to school and having basic needs.
I felt proud of when I was first in my class when I was in standard six. My happiest moment is when I celebrate my birthday, I have good things to drink with my family.
My dream is to be a doctor. I have to pass in biology, physics and chemistry. After that, I will help my mom and the society around to have good lives. I will be a good example to WEF student so that they can learn from me. I would like to introduce a system of free health service to all people.

Hello
Let me share with you this short story
"The Brain: The Story of You" by David Eagleman offers a fascinating exploration of the complexities of the human brain and how it shapes our perceptions, behaviors, and identities. Here are 10 valuable lessons from the book:

1, Understanding the Brain's Function: Eagleman provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how the brain works, from its basic structure to its intricate neural networks. By delving into neuroscience, readers gain insights into the mechanisms behind cognition, emotion, and behavior.

2. The Plasticity of the Brain: The book explores the concept of neuroplasticity, highlighting the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and change throughout life. Readers learn how experiences, learning, and the environment can reshape the brain's structure and function.

3. Perception and Reality: Eagleman delves into the fascinating ways in which the brain constructs our perceptions of reality. From optical illusions to sensory processing, readers gain a deeper understanding of how the brain interprets the world around us.

4. The Unconscious Mind: Much of our mental processing occurs outside of conscious awareness. The book explores the role of the unconscious mind in shaping our thoughts, decisions, and behaviors, offering insights into the mysteries of human consciousness.

5. Emotions and Decision-Making: Eagleman discusses the interplay between emotions and decision-making, revealing how our brain's emotional systems influence our choices and judgments. Understanding these dynamics can lead to greater self-awareness and emotional intelligence.

6. Memory and Learning: Memory is central to our identity and sense of self. The book explores the neuroscience of memory and learning, uncovering the mechanisms behind encoding, storage, and retrieval, as well as strategies for improving memory and cognitive function.

7. The Social Brain: Humans are inherently social beings, and our brains are finely tuned for social interaction. Eagleman examines the neural underpinnings of social behavior, empathy, and communication, shedding light on what it means to connect with others.

8. Neurological Disorders and Dysfunction: The book addresses common neurological disorders and dysfunctions, such as Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. By understanding the underlying mechanisms of these conditions, readers gain insights into potential treatments and interventions.

9. The Future of Brain Science: Eagleman explores the cutting-edge advancements in brain science and the potential implications for the future, from brain-computer interfaces to artificial intelligence. Readers gain a glimpse into the exciting possibilities and ethical considerations of neuroscience research.

10. The Power of Self-Reflection: Ultimately, "The Brain: The Story of You" prompts readers to reflect on their own experiences and identities in light of neuroscience. By understanding the workings of the brain, readers can gain a deeper appreciation for what it means to be human and cultivate greater empathy and understanding for themselves and others.

"The Brain: The Story of You" offers a captivating journey into the inner workings of the human brain, illuminating the mysteries of consciousness, perception, and identity. Whether you're a curious layperson or a seasoned neuroscientist, this book provides valuable insights and thought-provoking perspectives on what it means to be human. By exploring the complexities of the brain, readers can gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them, paving the way for personal growth, self-discovery, and a greater appreciation for the wonders of the mind.
